Seriously, Rasputin, listen to the SGs and you will soon enjoy much success.

I completely agree and if you have an unsolveable problem post it and wait for SG to tell you what he did when he had it.

Originally posted by Scouse Gits I thought that both of us (as in the SGs) had been quite helpful - or at least tried

Twenty to 30 cities is not a small island; 200 BC is not a terrible time for HG; being beat to several wonders is usually a product of starting techs and trade arrows available to each civ. All these "difficulties" can be overcome. Don't quit early, the AIs have no staying power except that they keep on growing, and growing, and growing ... So, get ready for a fight, grow by eating the AIs, target cities with Wonders you want. Note that all cities with Wonders can be found by going to the "Find City" function. Even if the area is black and unexplored, that city is in the middle of that area, so target your search to that.

As long as you aren't between 3 AI Civs you should be able to conquer them... Quickly ally with one and trade techs with the other two. Ask them for tribute and make them declare war on you (or declare war on them) then destroy the other 2 civs one by one.

Then kill you ally. You will have conquered the world by 1900 AD.

Also, use a custom map! They work great for quick games!
